* /Windows Airlines/ — The terminal is pretty and colorful, with
friendly stewards, easy baggage check and boarding, and a smooth
take-off. After about 10 minutes in the air, the plane explodes
with no warning whatsoever.
* /Mac Airlines/ — All the stewards, stewardesses, captains,
baggage handlers and ticket agents look the same, act the same,
and talk the same. Every time you ask questions about details, you
are told you don’t need to know, don’t want to know, and would you
please return to your seat and watch the movie.
* Linux Airlines — Disgruntled employees of all the other OS
airlines decide to start their own airline. They build the planes,
ticket counters, and pave the runways themselves. They charge a
small fee to cover the cost of printing the ticket, but you can
also download and print the ticket yourself. When you board the
plane, you are given a seat, four bolts, a wrench and a copy of
the seat-HOWTO.html. Once settled, the fully adjustable seat is
very comfortable, the plane leaves and arrives on time without a
single problem, the in-flight meal is wonderful. You try to tell
customers of the other airlines about the great trip, but all they
can say is, ‘You had to do what with the seat?’
